Udinese vs SSC Napoli Match Prediction

By Bharath Ramm R

Carlo Ancelotti’s Napoli have not been perfect in recent weeks but a steady stream of results has kept the club going after the second spot as usual. Napoli have a slender two-point lead over Inter and the rest of the division, but the title race already seems to be slipping away from Napoli’s hands owing to the brilliance of Juventus. Udinese will be aware about Napoli’s misfortunes on the road. Apart from the win over Torino, Napoli have had little joy in away games since September. Napoli have been able to pick up wins in the last two trips to the Dacia Arena and I would go with more of the same by a slender margin.

Napoli’s defensive form has been less than stellar with the club conceding 10 goals – the same as 15th placed Udinese. The form of players like Rodrigo de Paul has kept Udinese going and the form of such players may help break Napoli’s defence once again. An incredibly attractive choice is to go for both teams to score.

Napoli win – 4/7

Both teams to score – 19/20

Udinese saw over 1.5 goals in 7 out of their last 10 games played against SSC Napoli
